Viktoriia is a Ukrainian bandura player sharing intimate, tradition-rooted performances. Her music blends the resonant voice of the bandura with heartfelt vocals, creating a calm, deeply personal atmosphere. Carrying both cultural memory and quiet strength, her performances feel less like concerts and more like shared moments.

Kristina Castañeda holds a deep reverence for the music embedded in everyday life – the clank of metal hooks on a flagpole, the whistle of a faucet, the thrum of a ceiling fan – believing the ordinary to be extraordinary and inherently musical. For Kristina, music is the shared fire that brings humans together in a shared experience, in a way that nothing else can.
